The
flow properties of powdered and granulated food products are of great
importance in industry as they affect the storage, conveyance, and
packaging of the merchandise.

Certain
dried goods such as drinking powders and sweeteners are used directly
by consumers, and their flow properties have an influence on acceptance
of the product. In
this video we show examples of the difference in flowability of such
products as sugar (caster, granulated, icing, light soft brown, granular
sweetener), drinking powders (coffee granules, coffee powder, coffee
whitener, drinking chocolate, malt drinking powder), loose tea and baby
formula and the tool for the measurement of their flow properties. Cutting-edge technology for flexibility…Being
able to measure powder/granule flow is of prime importance to
manufacturers, but as quality standards continue to rise, few can afford
to stop there. Finished product testing is essential to ensure correct
performance and safeguard reputation, sales and market share.

By using a
Powder Flow Analyser,
manufacturers are able to change the attachments on the instrument for
testing semi-finished and finished products as well. This offers
considerable financial savings, as well as simplifying training and
releasing valuable lab space. Watch our video now...
We can design and manufacture probes or fixtures for the TA.XTplus texture analyser that are bespoke to your sample and its specific measurement.

Once
your measurement is performed, our expertise in its graphical
interpretation is unparalleled. Not only can we develop the most
suitable and accurate
method for the testing of your sample, but we can also prepare analysis
procedures that obtain the desired parameters from your curve and drop
them into a spreadsheet or report designed around your requirements.
